East Northamptonshire Chooses MrSID26/06/2009 |
| East Northamptonshire has relied upon old plotting sheets (stored in various and disparate locations) to support and make their planning decisions. Having had these maps scanned and geo-referenced, the council GIS team found their large file size a real problem especially when using them within other systems. |
|
To provide the solution the council has purchased a licence of LizardTech's GeoExpress 7.0 from Quarry One Eleven Ltd. GeoExpress will allow the council to convert all their image files into the industry-standard MrSID compression format. Since MrSID can provide up 95% visually-lossless reductions in the image file sizes, the council will see huge increases in the speed of delivery of the maps as well as markedly reducing the capacity required for their storage.

3D Scanning of Historic Sugar Factories |
|
The Alliance for Integrated Spatial Technologies at the University of South Florida, USA, recently worked with the Florida Park Service on a project to document the remains of several historic sugar-mill sites in the State Parks to create as-builts to be used in preservation and conservation of these resources. The FARO LS 880, along with GPS and total station georeferencing and colour imaging, was used on these projects.
